Journal ArticleDOI
Diamond-like amorphous carbon
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the deposition methods, deposition mechanisms, characterisation methods, electronic structure, gap states, defects, doping, luminescence, field emission, mechanical properties and some applications of diamond-like carbon.

Light Absorption by Carbonaceous Particles: An Investigative Review
Tami C. Bond,Robert Bergström +1 more
TL;DR: The optical properties of light-absorbing, carbonaceous substance often called "soot", "black carbon", or "carbon black" have been the subject of some debate as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
FTIR Spectroscopy for Carbon Family Study
TL;DR: The FTIR vibrational spectroscopy is presented, without claiming to cover entire field, for the characterization of diamond, amorphous carbon, graphite, graphene, carbon nanotubes, fullerene and carbon quantum dots.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of modified DLC coatings for biological applications
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the ratios of the different proteins adsorbed on the surface can be influenced by the addition of different elements into the diamond-like carbon (DLC) film.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deposition mechanisms for promoting sp3 bonding in diamond-like carbon
TL;DR: In this paper, it is proposed that the sp3 bonding arises from an increased density, owing to carbon ions entering subsurface atomic sites, and an optimum ion energy arises from a balance between the incident carbon ions having sufficient energy to penetrate the surface atomic layer, while minimizing any excess energy dissipated in a thermal spike.

Raman Spectrum of Graphite
F. Tuinstra,J. L. Koenig +1 more
TL;DR: Raman spectra are reported from single crystals of graphite and other graphite materials as mentioned in this paper, and the Raman intensity of this band is inversely proportional to the crystallite size and is caused by a breakdown of the k-selection rule.

Conduction in non-crystalline systems V. Conductivity, optical absorption and photoconductivity in amorphous semiconductors
E. A. Davis,Nevill Mott +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the experimental evidence concerning the density of states in amorphous semiconductors and the ranges of energy in which states are localized is reviewed; this includes d.c and a.c. conductivity, drift mobility and optical absorption.

Characterization of diamond films by Raman spectroscopy
Diane S. Knight,William B. White +1 more
TL;DR: The Raman spectrum of hexagonal diamond (lonsdaleite) is distinct from that of the cubic diamond and allows it to be recognized as discussed by the authors, and the Raman line width varies with mode of preparation of the diamond and has been related to degree of structural order.
Journal ArticleDOI
First- and second-order Raman scattering from finite-size crystals of graphite
TL;DR: In this article, the second-order Raman spectrum of pyrolytic graphite has been studied and the dependence of the first-order graphite Raman spectra on crystallite size has been shown.
Journal ArticleDOI
Topology of covalent non-crystalline solids I: Short-range order in chalcogenide alloys
TL;DR: In this article, an atomic model is introduced which for predominantly covalent forces constitutes the first microscopic realization of Kauzmann's description of the glass transition as an entropy (not enthalpy or volume) crisis.
